The former European Paint & Glass Working Group has been renamed to European Paint, Glass & Taggants Working Group. It was established in October 1995 in Wiesbaden.
Currently more than 40 forensic science agencies from about 26 European countries are participating in the European Paint, Glass & Taggants Working Group activities. There is also co-operation with the RCMP (Canada) and the FBI (USA).
Founded in 1937, S.C.A.F.O., or the Southern California Association of Fingerprint Officers, is an organization that stands as a testament to the dedication and progress in the field of forensic science. As a nonprofit assembly, it brings together experts from various forensic disciplines, all united by a common goal: to advance the science and the practice of forensic identification.
Over the years, S.C.A.F.O. has grown substantially, both in size and in the scope of its influence. Initially catering to the professional community within Southern California, the association’s renown has spread far beyond the state lines. Today, it enjoys national and international recognition, drawing members and contributors from across the globe. The organization’s growth is due to its commitment to excellence and professional development. S.C.A.F.O. provides regular training, educational resources, and opportunities for networking.
